    UK TSB Invests in ULTRA Fast 10Gbps Broadband Research (ISP Review)

    The Technology Strategy Board (TSB), an executive non-departmental public body (NDPB) established by the Government in 2007 and sponsored by the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS), has invested £1,000,000 into over a dozen research projects for the development of ULTRA Fast 1 and 10Gbps broadband technologies.

    The feasibility projects - each costing between £30,000 and £100,000 - will also help establish European collaborations and form part of larger EU-funded research projects. The ultimate aim, the development of pan-European Ultra Fast Broadband, could see EU companies gaining a massive competitive advantage on a global scale.

    that's not that bad.If you're with one of the big three ISP's in Canada the caps are abysmal (nothing over 100 GB). If you exceed the cap, the penalty can be as high $2.50/GB. While the speeds are ok (10/12/16 down & 1.5 up)the caps really suck.I guess we should be crying.:irked:

    You guys think you have it bad, try 125kb/s down, 100kb/s up. The only upside? No caps.
